Abstract: The invention includes a system for transforming an inflow gas containing methane and a second inflow gas containing carbon dioxide into outflow products that contain carbon monoxide and hydrogen, where the system includes a gas delivery subsystem, a plasma reaction chamber, a microwave subsystem, and an effluent separation and disposal system, with the gas delivery subsystem in fluid communication with the plasma reaction chamber; and the microwave subsystem directs microwave energy into the plasma reaction chamber to energize the first inflow gas and the second inflow gas, thereby forming a plasma, which plasma effects the transformation of the methane and the carbon dioxide into the outflow gas products; and wherein the system further includes an effluent separation and disposal system that includes a separator for segregating the carbon monoxide and the hydrogen from the effluent gas stream.

Abstract: The invention includes a gas processing system for transforming a hydrocarbon-containing inflow gas into outflow gas products, where the system includes a gas delivery subsystem, a plasma reaction chamber, and a microwave subsystem, with the gas delivery subsystem in fluid communication with the plasma reaction chamber, so that the gas delivery subsystem directs the hydrocarbon-containing inflow gas into the plasma reaction chamber, and the microwave subsystem directs microwave energy into the plasma reaction chamber to energize the hydrocarbon-containing inflow gas, thereby forming a plasma in the plasma reaction chamber, which plasma effects the transformation of a hydrocarbon in the hydrocarbon-containing inflow gas into the outflow gas products, which comprise acetylene and hydrogen. The invention also includes methods for the use of this gas processing system.
